Villanelle

A new beginning - dark gives way to light
Winter makes its transition into Spring
All that is bad is gone, everything is right.
The dawn of a new day is now in sight
Magical bells herald, we hear them ring
A new beginning - dark gives way to light
Birds soar across the sky in tranquil flight
The world is ruled over by a peaceful king
All that is bad is gone, everything is right.
Prismatic stars rule the splendour of the night
And praises of the peaceful world they sing
A new beginning - dark gives way to light.
People of all countries behold the sight
Peace and goodwill this new era will bring
All that is bad is gone, everything is right.
The sun shines down, beautiful and bright
Its majestic rays touch everything
A new beginning - dark gives way to light
All that is bad is gone, everything is right.
